John Wiley & Sons, Inc, 1994. — 1267 p. — ISBN: 978-0-471-01670-0.Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds The first fully referenced, comprehensive book on this subject in more than thirty years, Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds contains up-to-date coverage and insightful exposition of all important new concepts, developments, and tools in the rapidly advancing field of stereochemistry, including:
Asymmetric and diastereoselective synthesis
Conformational analysis
Properties of enantiomers and racemates
Separation and analysis of enantiomers and diastereoisomers
Developments in spectroscopy (including NMR), chromatography, and molecular mechanics as applied to stereochemistry
